had a similar problem once it was more a water flow problem than any thing .slow current gives the algae a chance to ghrow also how old are your lights ,usually the bulbs are good for a year before loosing thier uv spectrum effectiveness

Hey dude, what water are you using?

algae slime
 

good point i switched to an rodi unit also

how much you feeding, skimmer, doing water changes? algae don't grow from nothing

Make sure you add additional flow to these all-in-one systems, as they never have enough. If it don't have a protein skimmer, this is also a must. Finally, what do you have all in the system? If the system is overstocked, no matter how much flow and a good protein skimmer you have, you will run into problems.

I have the same problem. I bumped up the circulation and added some turbo snails. It seems to be helping quite a bit.
